Replying here to Allan and Perrin at once.
No news is better than stale news. So I'm really -0 on starting any news
sections. We tried this before, it never worked. The only way I can see
this working if someone volunteers to keep it up2date and really does the
work, and not for the first week.

perl.apache.org is really a documentation site, it's not a news site.
Perhaps someone could start /.org style modperl news site, in which case
it should be much easier to keep it alive, by just letting others post
stories. perl.apache.org could link to it and have RSS feed to it.
